  1. @1978mike im weary of starting medication to prevent a oss that isnt apparent yet. my family is 50/50 when it comes to hair - half the guys both sides(mothers and fathers side) are showing signs of MPB and the other half have good heads of hair. no way for me to predict whats going to happen, but im not expecting to loose much until im into my 30's. what im more concerned with is the hairline - i've kept it long since i was younger - now that it's time to loose the scruffy look im noticing how bad my hairline is. so fue is definitely a bad way to go???
  2. thanks for your opinions! i still think if it was a little lower and thicker it would make a huge improvement - particularly when cut short. ya, im having a consult with the shapiro med group on the 3rd of may - so if they tell me its a bad idea, i won't give it a second thought! definitely not going to ignore their advice - or your advice! thanks guys.
  3. ok, so i've read quite a few forum posts and i have a few quick questions: are transplanted hair follicles more fragile long term - are they more likely to fall out if rubbed or when styling hair? will they wither over time - or should they maintain hair strand density? im talking about 10 years down the line could someone give me their honest opinion: i am a 20 year old male, my hairline isn't receding - but is naturally far back and sparse(compared to the rest of my hair) - i have pictures on my profile. i do expect to start seeing MPB when im in my 30's, but it isnt evident yet - my hairline has remained the same throughout my teens. the reason i want a hair transplant is to stop looking like im balding prematurely - so i can style my hair shorter without worrying. i also want very thick hair in front to match the rest of my head. in your opinions - should i get a FUE procedure? i have been saving up for around 2 years, so i can cover around 1000 - 1500 grafts from the shapiro medical group (fingers crossed). would getting the fue so young result in thinning of the transplanted grafts early on? how long should the grafts last? im rough on my hair - will grafts fall out easily after they have healed? will 1000 grafts make any improvement whatsoever to my hairline, or is it a futile attempt? thanks to anyone who has read this whole post! i would really appreciate your advice!!!!
